117 Beekman Street is an unusual boutique prewar 1918 building that was transformed into condominiums in 1981 by the esteemed designer/architect Rafael Vinoly. Located in the heart of the 13 block South Street Seaport historic district- this soaring corner   loft showcases some of the most dramatic water views available downtown.

 

 

Spanning 1625 square feet, this state-of-the-art loft is unrivaled. Enhanced by soaring 12+ foot ceilings the oversized living space is simply stunning. Brilliant sunshine floods the room through 5 panoramic picture windows with direct southern and eastern   facing exposures, the views of the Brooklyn Bridge and East River are mesmerizing.

 

This sleek modern home was meticulously designed and expanded (by partially combining apartments) by the owner/architect with an exceptional eye to detail. The custom renovation of this loft currently configured as a 2-bedroom 2-bath plus library/den (easily   converts to three bedroom) incorporates the highest level of finishes and begins with new electric and mechanicals. A dual zone Central Air and Heating structure has been installed with both ultraviolet antimicrobial treatment and electronic dust filter to   elevate your living experience in todays world. Lutron lighting and an Eco Fuel fireplace clad in Silver Travertine further fortify the sophistication and comfort of the space. The vast kitchen features a large central island and a comfortable area for dining.   There are Caesar stone countertops, a slew of Varenna high gloss cabinetry, along with a Smeg oven and cooktop, Subzero refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher.

 

The entire space is fully maximized with an elegant streamline flow. Off the wide gallery like hallway are seven customized California closets (one with your in-unit washer/dryer) which seamlessly blend into the clean powerful lines. Extending from this   concourse is a secondary bedroom, another full bath with a glass enclosed shower and an exquisite library which is customized with a built-in desk along with dual floor to ceiling shelving/bookcases.

 

This hallway leads to a magnificent bedroom suite with north and eastern exposures which can be completely closed off and private from the rest of the loft. There is a walk-in closet/dressing area along with a sumptuous oversized windowed bathroom with a   large Duravit soaking tub, separate glass enclosed shower, dual marble top vanity sinks, and white Volakas marble walls.

 

117 Beekman Street is a full-service boutique condominium with full time door attendant, bike storage, central laundry and is pet friendly. The beautifully landscaped and furnished roof deck with a grill and outdoor shower is one of NYCs best, with jaw dropping   views of the East River and bridges (and front row seats for 4th of July fireworks).

 

The Seaport District is one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in New York City and home to some of the citys most innovative culinary, fashion and entertainment experiences. It continues to evolve, with new experiences on the way, including a 53,000-square-foot   food hall by Jean-Georges Vongerichten in the restored Tin Building.
